Once in a while,
She don't want to call you,
Speaking on the telephone,
And once in your life,
She won't want to know you,
You look around, the one you found,
And she is gone.
N.
And that's all the time,
That it takes,
For a heart to turn to stone,
The sweeter the wine,
The harder to make the break,
You hear something about someone
You thought you'd known
N.
So baby don't cry,
Like there's no tomorrow,
After the night there's a brand new day,
And there'll be no pain,
And no more sorrow,
So wash your face,
And call my place,
It'll be OK,
(you get the idea of the chord sequence)
And that's all the time,
That it takes,
For a heart to beat again,
So give me a sign,
That a lover makes,
You look around, the one you've found
Is back again (is back again)
Is back again (is back again)
Is back again (is back again)
